Exploring the Nine Energies as a Map of Growth
4-week in-person series | Tuesdays 6:30–8:30 pm
Feb 17, Feb 24, Mar 3, Mar 10
Do you know your Enneagram type and feel ready to go deeper?
Maybe you understand your core type, but want the Enneagram to come alive as a personalized map of growth and discovery. Or perhaps you know your growth path - your lines of growth - but still find yourself wondering: How do I actually embody these energies in real life? What does it feel like to grow toward my line of growth?
This in-person workshop series is an experiential deep dive into the nine Enneagram energies. Together, we’ll explore the types not as labels, but as living patterns - energies, or “parts” - we all carry to varying degrees. Through gentle embodied practice and play, interactive reflection, and group exploration, you’ll get to try on each type’s energy in a way that feels interactive, safe, invitational, playful, and surprisingly illuminating.
Informed by expressive arts, you’ll be guided in a supportive container to explore what’s familiar, what’s underdeveloped, and what your system might be hungry to integrate for growth. No prior experience is needed. This is not about performance - it’s about discovery.
Expect a blend of insight, embodiment, compassion, and laughter - and a deeper understanding of your own growth edges, gifts, and inner complexity.
What we’ll do (each week)
In each session, you’ll experience:
A clear teaching on the types we’re exploring that evening (core motivations, gifts, shadow patterns, and growth edges)
Embodied “try-on” practices to experience the energy of each type
Interactive partner + small group exploration to keep it grounded and relational
Reflective journaling + a parts-work lens (What parts of me already do this? What parts avoid this? What wants to grow?)
Integration practices to translate insight into real life
